Systemates and Informative Graphics Partnership Enhances Web-Based Construction Management Software
Integrated Solution Delivers Advanced Project Collaboration Capabilities for Construction, Government, Education and Retail Industries
SCOTTSDALE and DALLAS — Aug. 3, 2010 — Informative Graphics Corporation (IGC), a leader in viewing, collaboration and redaction technology, announced an integration partnership with Systemates, Inc., a leading provider of capital project management software. Offering construction management solutions to the construction, government, education and retail industries, Systemates has integrated IGC’s Brava!® viewer into its Projectmates software. Combined with Brava’s proven viewing and collaboration capabilities, Projectmates delivers a secure, sophisticated web-based construction management software solution.
Projectmates is an online project management solution which aids in the complete life cycle of construction projects. Using a simple web browser, teams can share drawings, documents, meeting minutes, discussions, project budgets, invoices and many more mission-critical details. As documents go through the review process, Brava gives project members the ability to collaborate on drawing specifications and project details. Users can view, markup and print files from any Windows-based application, including AutoCAD. Brava eliminates the need for expensive native software, making it a smart choice to contain project costs.
“Projectmates has powerful online collaborative tools for everything from document management and two-way bidding to construction workflow, scheduling, and cost tracking,” said Hemant Bhave, Vice President of Systemates, Inc. “Augmenting our solution with Brava, we give users an easy way to view, annotate and collaborate on virtually any file. This empowers Projectmates customers to share AEC documents, drawings, specifications and BIM documents—even with remote project participants.” In addition to the Brava viewer, Projectmates’ document manager has built-in version control, file approvals and routing, and an audit log that stores a history of file access.
Streamlining overall project management, including collaboration, is an effective way to increase productivity and efficiency. “We are excited that Brava was selected to be part of Projectmates’ construction management solution,” said Jeff Herding, Vice President of Sales for IGC. “Our integrated solution gives a wide array of industries a better way to collaborate—giving project managers a way to save both time and money.”
